They seemed to get the best reviews of all the waterproof panniers. They just came in today though so I haven&#39;t had a chance to put them through the ringers yet.J.

Not sure why. When I got them, they were $95 on amazon, so it was worth just getting them locally. Now, $83 for the pair is A SMOKING DEAL! <br /><br />c&#39;Dude, if you put up a solid review on your site, I&#39;ll link to it from here and BikeCommuters.com - I didn&#39;t realize you&#39;d had them for so long.Noahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15271155305943176738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37888568.post-51312182662029709582009-08-14T12:57:37.605-05:002009-08-14T12:57:37.605-05:00Monsoon and Typhoon: sure you know someone that&#...Monsoon and Typhoon: sure you know someone that&#39;s used these for more than a year! Well, I&#39;m just coming up upon my one-year mark on using these bags, so I&#39;m more than happy to contribute a review, or at least write one and have you link to it as a follow-up. In short, with a year of use: yes. They are still waterproof, with one small exception. More to come... Let me know if you&#39;d like me to write something up.... kGcommuterDudehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14572371287751503718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37888568.post-52654497693394922902009-08-14T12:57:30.327-05:002009-08-14T12:57:30.327-05:00You bought them for $120?

After almost a year it still looks brand new, it holds everything including my laptop VERY securely and has not had a leak yet. i am definitely impressed with them and will definitely look at the rest of the Arkel line when I need another bag.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
